Salsarific Pizza Dough and a Giveaway!!!

Hi folks, little old me again. I know, I know, I just posted the black forest cheesecakes in a jar but I just had to return with this one. Plus there is a bonus for you on this one.

A bonus you ask.

What kind of a bonus Miss Lunatic?

Will there be cake?

MY LATEST VIDEOS

Will there be presents?

Are my questions annoying you?

Hey did you guys ever see the movie “Despicable Me”? I love the part where the little girl asks “is this annoying” then makes that face slapping popping noise. It cracks me up every time I watch it. And I do not, I repeat, do not, walk around doing it to the kids all day long and laughing hysterically at myself. Really, I don’t. At least not every single day.

Okay that had nothing to do with anything but I just had to share. I freaking love that movie. “It’s so fluffy”! Okay, okay, I’ll stop now.

Alrighty roo, moving on. So we were talking about pizza. Wait, no, that’s not right.

Ah, yes, we were talking about surprises and bonuses and presents. Yah, that’s it.

So do you guys like surprises?

And bonuses?

And presents?

Yah, me too!

So guess what?

I decided to hold a “I love my fans giveaway”. Sponsored by yours truly. Now before you get all excited, keep in mind, sponsored by me, not like Oprah, or like Ellen. So keep that in mind my lovelies. While I announce this:

Contest is closing on November 12th at midnightOFFICIALLY ENDED. Random number generator shall make the call this time. Next giveaway will be a video taped draw. Whoohoo!

NOTE- FOLKS THIS IS SPICY, I MEAN SPPPIIIICCCCY! WHEN YOU BITE INTO IT, IT WILL BITE YOU BACK. SO DO NOT MAKE THIS IF YOU ARE A SISSY WHO CAN’T HANDLE THE HEAT!

*the Lunatic will not be held responsible if you ignore the previous warning and end up at the hospital and come home crying like a sissy cuz it was too hot*

*the Lunatic may or may not have cried herself after hers bit her back*

*the Lunatic insists she is not a sissy*

*the Lunatic’s doctor can verify this as he specifically told her she was not a sissy when he handed her lollipops*

The pictures are not fabulouso this time. I had technically difficulties with a snapped memory card and ended up with mostly blank files. Such a shame. These shots were not balanced properly but will have to suffice. I like this last one but the previous ones I had the settings wrong. So the color is off. Forgive me. You know you still love me.

Tell your friends about me folks. The more the merrier. And we could all use a little more merry this time of year!

Which reminds me, some big news for you on Tuesday! So be sure to check back on what it is.

I also have a Slow Cooker Sunday post for you. But I shall wait and do that one in the morning so you don’t grow weary of me.

Your pizza dough sounds amazing, why have I never thought to add spices to my dough? I am such a spice freak (and not a sissy) this is so happening this week. And thanks so much for the link to my cheesecake!!

I LOVE DESPICABLE ME! My four year old watches it all the time and I can't keep myself from stopping and staring at the screen on my way by and next thing I know I'm hooked in for the rest of it even though I've seen it a million times! Liiiiightbulb! One of my favorite parts is when the horrible orphanage lady introduces the girls to Gru and the tomboy girl with the pink hat is staring at him with her mouth hanging open. Best expression ever! Anyhoo love your blog and love this giveaway! I already have the Healthy Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a day and my fave recipe from that is the Whole Wheat and Olive Oil which can be modified to make just about anything! I was just in Barnes and Noble yesterday and saw that they just came out with a Pizza Dough and Flatbread in Five Minutes a Day and I'll be adding that to my wishlist too! Going to do all the following and subsequent annoying comments for the draw next! Thanks!

@sevimel- entered! You should be able to just click the red blog and it should take you there. I did test the link so it should work. I just tried it and it works for me but maybe it's broken in the post for others. Can someone else test it and let me know if it's working for all you folks???

@Charlie!!!!!- I've missed ya. Did you end up in Ontario for a visit? I do have the right Charlie I hope! lol! Entered!

Ooh, this looks so yummy! I'm overdue to make pizza for my gang…you are my inspiration! I finally ordered this cookbook, so as much as I have this uncontrollable need to enter all contests, I'll let one of your other lovely fans win this time! Your giveaways are wonderful 🙂

Kim–This is a wonderful giveaway, I hope I am lucky enough to be the winner.As for my favorite type of bread, that is difficult because I LOVE bread. I suppose I would have to say a warm loaf of French bread (crusty on the outside soft on the inside).

Hey guys, sorry behind on replying. Grab a snack, this could take awhile but here goes:

@Flex Your Food- Love both of those but partial to ciabatta. Although I never pronounce it properly!

@Cindy- Oh…crusty italian bread! Love it. I am now officially craving that. This is super hot. It's a guys dough, but I eat like a dude so it's to be expected. Lol!

@fitinthemidwest- I am not a huge olive fan but we bought some olive bread at a market and it was slamming good!

@Boi Polloi- Lol, my daughter is a sissy with spice too. I love the look of multigrain bread. I can't eat most though. Have trouble with a lot of wheat products and some seeds. It's so pretty though.

@dena- Challah is beautiful. I have never made it but aim to this winter.

@Tina- Lol, it happens. I have done that with people where I think I am and I'm not. And thank you!

@Amy- Love italian. I know right, these giveaways are a workout!

@Torviewtoronto- Thanks so much.

@Lizzy- *falls down laughing* Ya, I think people might start getting all suspicious if you won two of mine in a row. Lol!

@Christine- Pizza is the bomb!

@Eliotseats- Thanks and thanks. It just looks so cute to write in it. I did hearts in my last pizza post. So adorable and fun!

@Happy When Not Hungry- Oh brioche is on my list of things to try this winter. I've never made it.

@OvenDelights- Oh wow, that sounds flipping amazing. Love pizza. Could eat it every day and practically do!

@Stephanie- Okay I have a confession, I've never eaten focaccia. I must try it. They even sell it as Costco now!

@Ping- I am not a stickler for rules. As long as you have a post box in the states it's all good. I swear I keep telling hubs we need an American address so I can enter contests. Us Canadians get screwed contest wise. Rarely get to enter.

@Jeff- That is so sweet. Love a guy who loves Grandma's cooking. I can't wait to get this book and start playing. I waited for my copy till I ended the giveaway so I'm chomping at the bit to do the draw. Lol!

@momdecuisine- I have never made pretzel dough. I have to try. I see such cool stuff made with it these days.

@Dionne- I love spice. I don't have many bread recipes that don't use my breadmaker so I am excited to get my own copy of this book.

@Rachel- Thanks. Oh you are talking my language girl. I love when bread has that perfect crunch on the outside but you rip in and it's soft as can be. I don't eat bread like a normal person. I pull it apart bit by bit. Not sure why. Again, goes back to me eating like a dude I think. Lol!

@Carolyn- I love multigrain but it bugs my tummy. So I rarely eat that. Funny how my ibs reacts to everything healthy. Makes losing weight a real challenge. I love that you entered but can't eat the stuff. You are my kind of lady. Family first. Love it!!!
